About Ontario History

Ontario History is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that is published bi-annually by the Ontario Historical Society. Ontario's premier history journal, it discusses a wide variety of topics relating to our province's past.

In 1899, the Ontario Historical Society (OHS) published the first issue of Ontario History, then titled Papers and Records. What began primarily as an effort to preserve important documentary sources has evolved over the past century to become today's scholarly peer journal, publishing new research and scholarship on topics related to all aspects of Ontario's diverse heritage.

Ontario History is indexed in the Canadian Periodical Index, Historical Abstracts and America: History and Life.
